St IGNUcius

Emacs was
originally an extensible text editor written by Richard Stallman, but
it became a way of life and a religion. To join the Church of Emacs,
you need only pronounce the Confession of the Faith:

There is no system but GNU, and Linux is one of its kernels.

Sainthood in the Church of Emacs requires living a life of
purity—but in the Church of Emacs, this does not require
celibacy (a sigh of relief is heard). Being holy in our church means
exorcizing whatever evil, proprietary operating systems have possessed
computers that are under your control, or set up for your regular use;
installing a holy (i.e., wholly) free operating system
(GNU/Linux is a good
choice); and using and installing only free software with and on the
system. Note that tablets and mobile phones are computers and this
vow includes them.

Join the Church of Emacs, and you too can be a saint!

People sometimes ask if St IGNUcius is wearing an old computer disk
platter. That is no computer disk, that is my halo — but it was
a disk platter in a former life. No information is available about
what kind of computer it came from or what data was stored on it.
However, you can rest assured that no non-free software is readable
from it today.

In addition to saints, the Church of Emacs also has a hymn—the Free Software
Song. (No gods yet, though.) Hear the song sung by Saint IGNUcius himself.
